Building isn't for the weak. It demands grit. Courage. Fire. And the ability to look past those who call you crazy - those who say you will fail. Because maybe you will. In fact, you'll fail 99 times before you succeed once. But when you finally make it - when you finally taste the glorious fruits of your triumph - that's when you'll realize you never truly failed.

HackGT is Georgia Tech's first official national hackathon. Over 1,000 hackers from across the nation will travel by bus and plane to represent their universities at the biggest event of its kind in the South, competing for over $120,000 in prizes. Grab up to 3 teammates and prepare to rock.
